The closer you get, the faster the beeps sound and the lights flash.
It works like an electronic game of 'hot and cold', helping you find your stuff as quickly and easily as possible. There's only one tracker that can do this, and it's already helping tens of thousands of people across the world.

Seriously, I lose everything everywhere. I got my Lo8tor Lite 2-3 years ago. It has saved me too many times to count. I have one in my wallet, one on my key chain, one on my safe key and one on my storage key. If they made little tiny ones I think I'd catalog all my stuff and use it on almost everything. Awesome product. I strongly recommend it . I am going to buy a set for my parents right now :)

What a great idea!

Review by Bill(Posted on 3/11/2014)

Blimey! What a great idea! I have long wondered if something like this existed, and now I am delighted to find out it does! I've spent so long over the years trying to find my suitcases once I disembark from a cruise holiday. Loc8tor's luggage finder will end that right now!

For my cruise holiday

Review by Walter(Posted on 2/28/2014)

I have a cruise booked for next week and have now bought my luggage finder to make reuniting with my suitcases a breeze - I hope! So long to trying to find my black case in a pile of black cases!

I'm sure I will be the envy of the other passengers.

no more stress

Review by Brett(Posted on 2/27/2014)

Great product. It took the stress out of finding my stuff once I left the cruise ship - you should sell these on board the ship because I'm sure other passengers would love to have one!

Best investment I've made this year

Review by Raymond(Posted on 2/25/2014)

My wife and I are regular cruise holiday-makers and we have always struggled to find our luggage in an acceptable amount of time at the end of the cruise. This year we were prepared and bought a Loc8tor Lite to help us locate our suitcases. It worked like a dream! As soon as we entered the luggage hall in the cruise terminal we turned on the handset and tried to find our cases. Using some flashing lights and beeping sounds it directed us which way to walk to find our luggage. It was amazing and I think there were some other cruise passengers who will be buying your product after watching us retrieve our luggage with ease. Loc8tor Lite is now the top of our packing list when we go on holiday!

finding car keys and wallet

Review by Tim - Southampton(Posted on 7/10/2012)

I use the Loc8tor to find my car keys but also, most importantly my wallet- if I can’t find it a quick bleep will tell me whether it is in the house before I panic and cancel all of my cards!

What a long overdue fab idea!

Review by Paul Kerfoot - west Yorks(Posted on 7/10/2012)

I am buying a Loc8tor (for business) to help find my keys, mobile phone and car, and one for home for the wife for Xmas so she doesn’t loose the kids! Actually this is my excuse to keep a better eye on them as they are always wandering off and you have to be careful these days – the peace of mind is worth the price alone (especially the panic button) yet you can’t really put a value on your kids safety – it’s priceless.

complex key situations

Review by Lois Parker - peopleton(Posted on 7/9/2012)

I use my Loc8tor to find keys, surprisingly enough. With three vehicles and three barns and a lockable parcel-pod this can be quite a task.

Today my husband said he coudn't find the barn key and what had I done with it. I knew I had used it but was sure I had put it back on its hook. He finds it easier to find me than use Loc8tor, sadly.

No signal inside the house, follow the direction finder outside, very weak and no audible tone, in an open barn, inside a shredder, the keys attached to the lock that usually holds the ladder on the wall. At that point he remembered having used the keys.

Thanks, have bought a keyfinder for my sister too, even though her key situation is a lot less compless than mine. Just wish I could register the fobs to two finders so I could keep one in the campervan.

Thank you - this does seem to have worked.

Review by Pauline of Norwich(Posted on 7/9/2012)

Just wanted to tell you that the whole thing is great. My husband loses his keys/wallet etc all the time, and occasionally someone takes them..... He is a teacher and this week a pupil took his keys and hid them in the pocket of a friend. My husband waited until registration and went round all the classrooms with his locator to find them again - all the female staff were so impressed they are all going to buy one for their husbands!!

Brilliant Highly recommended

Review by John Wellard(Posted on 7/9/2012)

I must say that after spending many hours in the past searching for lost keys, usually when I am late or the car is loaded up ready to leave or even late at night when I go to lock up and find an empty hook where the bunch of keys should be, I have always thought that it would be a great idea to have some kind of locating device.

Having seen a few of these in the ‘junk mail’ catalogues I always dismissed them feeling they wouldn’t work, however when I saw your stand at The Festival Of Speed at Goodwood a couple of weeks ago I was very impressed with the quality of the LOC8TOR and although I did think they were rather expensive decided to buy one with two extra locating sensors.

Brilliant, last week I was running late for a long drive up to my factory in Newcastle under Lyme and just couldn’t find my car keys, the Loc8tor lead me right to them, they were actually in my briefcase on the driving seat of my car which was in the garage. It would have taken me – well I don’t know how long to find them there. Previous to that I started to search again for missing car keys when the loc8tor found that I had put them back in a metal key safe.

Yes, the loc8tor was not cheap but it is very well made and takes away that panic when you really need keys and just end up rushing around in circles getting into more and more of a panic. In fact it’s rather fun to find keys missing – Brilliant – highly recommended.

Are you sure you didn't borrow my screwdriver?

Review by Colin Tasker - Bucks(Posted on 7/9/2012)

A short while ago I purchased the standard Loc8tor unit and some tags not convinced it would be of much use. I was, however, very pleasantly suprised with the effectiveness. My colleage, however, is not - When he fervently denied 'borrowing' my screwdriver set and forgetting to put it back I took out the handheld and his desk drawer began beeping away!!

I am over the moon with the Loc8tor

Review by Mary Forsyth(Posted on 7/9/2012)

I am over the moon with the Loc8tor. It is fantastic to know that should I lose a key it will track it down for me. Over the past few years my doorkey has been lost twice and apart from the expense of having the lock changed it is miserable to have to hang around for hours until someone can come and help you out. I will no longer have that worry and think the price of Loc8tor is really reasonable for the peace of mind it brings. A huge thank you. From Mary

FANTASTIC!

Review by Ann(Posted on 7/6/2012)

I love it! If you are like me and can never find your keys & phone - this will change your life! Thank you so much (and I have never written a review before!!!)

Hunt the Specs

Review by Zander Wedderburn(Posted on 7/2/2012)

I just bought the Loc8tor Lite package, and I'm absolutely gobsmacked! The first thing I've done is immediately to order two more tags, as you will no doubt have noted already.

I've been looing for just such a device for ages and am delighted to have found it at last. I can hardly believe how you have miniaturised the whole thing and yet packed it with such superb functionality!

One comment. Can you move the volume setting button so that it isn't directly opposite the power on/off switch, or vise versa? The reason I suggest this is that I have found that I pick up the Base unit along the sides, and when I then squeeze the power button the volume button directly opposite gets squeezed too and generally turns the sound off altogether. Took me a couple of tries to figure out the problem, and now I know how to avoid it, but it makes handling the Base unit just a tad awkward, needs both hands.

Other than that - it's fan-bloody-tastic, and I think you should be nominated for a Nobel Prize! And I shall most definitely tell all my friends all about it.

Well done, many thanks, and best regards.

*Nickname

*Summary of Your Review

*Review

Q - How does the Loc8tor Lite work? A - Loc8tor Lite uses a blend of exciting new technologies and traditional radio frequency (RF) technology. Both tags and handset transmit and receive radio signals. The Loc8tor Lite handset picks up this signal. Whilst the tag beeps to help guide you in the handset actually points you in the direction to walk. Using clear audio and visual prompts just follow the direction with the strongest signal.

Q - How many items can I protect with my Loc8tor Lite? A - Up to 4. The pack comes supplied with 2 homing tags but an extra two mini homing tags can be purchased.

Q - What range does Loc8tor Lite have? A - Loc8tor Lite has a typical range of up to 122m / 400 feet. This is based upon an outdoor application with clear line of sight. In certain environments you can find over a greater distance. Obstacles such as walls, floors, cupboards and other people will reduce the maximum range proportionately.

Q - How accurate is it? A - The Loc8tor Lite handset will guide you to within 2.5cm / 1 inch of the homing tag attached to your item.

Q - How do I actually find something? A - Switching the handset on and select the item you want to find. So long as the tag is in range the handset will pick up its signal. Now turn around in a full circle keeping the handset pointing straight in front of you. Now walk in the direction of the strongest signal. The Loc8tor Lite handset uses audio with varying pitch (higher when you are pointing in the right direction), and visual (red, amber and then green) to indicate you are getting closer. Repeat full circle if you are ever unsure which direction to walk in.

Q - Will it locate the tags through obstacles such as fences or walls? A - Yes, however the maximum range will be reduced. Actual range will vary depending on what is between the tagged item and handset.

Q - Can Loc8tor Lite detect whether your item is upstairs or downstairs? A - Yes, Loc8tor Lite is fully directional and will provide guidance left and right, and up and down. You will get the strongest signal when you are pointing directly at the tag. First complete a full circle. As you get closer try pointing to the ceiling (if you are downstairs) or to the floor (if upstairs).

Q - Does Loc8tor Lite work abroad? A - Yes, Loc8tor Lite works on the 2.45GHz frequency band which can be used worldwide.

Q - How do I attach a tag to the item I wish to protect? A - Supplied in the Loc8tor Lite packaging are two lanyard keyrings and two double-sided sticky pads, giving you the flexibility of being able to attach a tag whichever way suits you best.

Q - How do I know which button to press to search for it? A - When you register each new tag you are able to assign it to one of the four buttons on the front. Make a note which pet is assigned to which button on the slip provided. This can either be stuck to the back of the handset or onto the bracket provided.

Q - Will tags owned by other people affect my Loc8tor Lite handset? A - No. Each tag is uniquely registered to your handset during a simple set up process. It is then impossible for other handsets to interfere with your signal or even find your tag.

Q - Are the tags water resistant? A - Not unless used with our splashproof cases (sold separately).
